No way! Trader Joe’s in Short Pump was giving away free tortilla chips this morning and I don’t think they even knew about the holiday. Too perfect.

Im not sure - the stupid website makes you jump through hoops to figure anything out but last time I think it was 1230 and we were waiting by 1115 and gave up and got an Uber around 1215

I'd like to think I'm a decent landlord. I have only raised my rent to one tenant in the past 13 years, and only because my mortgage became higher than what I was charging. I think my mortgage on that house is currently about $30 more than I'm charging that family.

I work with all of my tenants on timeliness of their payments. They are pretty regularly behind, but as long as they communicate with me, it's not a big deal. I've never charged a late payment fee. I've only had one tenant become so far behind in payment that I've asked him to leave. Even then, he was totally cool about it and there was no actual eviction, so it didn't count against him in any way credit-wise.

Most recently, one of my tenants lives in a house with oil heat. That family has hit a rough patch and had some health issues, so I have bought about 450 gallons of oil for the house in the past few months at no charge to them.
